During his Ayodhya visit, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath attacked Congress and Samajwadi Party over past decisions. The statement came amid the Ram Temple donation controversy. He questioned their claims about respecting faith and religion. Yogi said these parties had allowed namaz on Hanumangarhi steps. He asked whether they could allow Hanuman Chalisa inside Jama Masjid. The Chief Minister questioned who permitted such an action at Hanumangarhi.
Furthermore, Yogi said those actions hurt religious sentiments. He claimed his government restored Ayodhya’s identity as a cultural capital. He added that before 2017, people viewed visitors with suspicion. According to him, the situation changed after his government started development work in the city.

“Those who today speak of devotion had once organised namaz on the steps of Hanuman Garhi. Will Congress or the Samajwadi Party ever organise a Hanuman Chalisa paath inside Jama Masjid? If not, why did they commit that sin?” —… pic.twitter.com/w4fcEv6qV6— The Bharat Post (@TheBharatPost__) July 10, 2026
